Er tegnspråk en form for kroppsspråk? Is sign language a form of body language Engelsk er morsmålet mitt. English is my mother tongue. Hvordan uttrykker hun seg selv? How does she express herself? Det kommer an på hva slags dialekt man har. It depends on what kind of dialect you have. Hvor mange norske dialekter kan du? How many Norwegian dialects do you know? Fremmedspråk er ikke like fremmede når du kan snakke dem. Foreign languages aren’t as foreign when you know how to speak them. Jeg er tospråklig, men jeg kan ikke engelsk. I am bilingual, but I cannot speak English.
Paret hilste meg velkommen. The couple bid me welcome. Hun hilser aldri på meg. She never says hi to me. Hyggelig å hilse på deg. Nice to meet you. Med vennlig hilsen. With best regards. Metaforen er død. The metaphor is dead. Hva rimer på lilla? What rhymes with purple? Må dikt rime? Do poems have to rhyme? Ikke tolk det bokstavelig. Don’t interpret that literally. Klærne våre var ganske formelle. Our clothes were quite formal.
For mange forkortelser gjør teksten uleselig. Too many abbreviations make the text illegible. Grammatikken er språkets skjelett. Grammar is the skeleton of language. Ordet betyr noe annet i den konteksten. The word means something else in that context. Vi har både muntlige og skriftlige kilder. We have both oral and written sources. Ordforrådet mitt gikk fra null til over tre tusen ord. My vocabulary went from zero to over three thousand words. Søknaden hans inneholdt altfor mange skrivefeil. His application contained far too many typographical errors. Det er svært viktig å ha en skriftlig, klar og tydelig avtale om lønn. It is very important to have a written, clear and straightforward agreement about pay.
Sjelen har intet kjønn. The soul has no gender. Det er bare et uttrykk. It is just an expression. Hvordan uttaler du etternavnet ditt? How do you pronounce your last name? Det hjelper ikke å klage over det som har skjedd. It does not help to complain about that which has happened. Dette er ikke den offisielle versjonen. This is not the official version.
Norsk og finsk er gjensidig uforståelige. Norwegian and Finnish are mutually unintelligible. Har du oversettelsen av setningen? Do you have the translation of the sentence? Ikke nevn navnet hans. Don’t mention his name. Elevene kommuniserte i kode. The pupils communicated in codes. Det er mange spennende jobber for dem som har mestret matematikk. There are many exciting jobs for those who have mastered mathematics. En ordbok med synonymer kalles en synonymordbok. A dictionary with synonyms is called a thesaurus.
Dette motsier ingenting. This contradicts nothing. Har du funnet noen sitater fra kjente bøker eller filmer? Have you found some quotes from well-known books or movies? Dansk var skriftspråk i Norge i mer enn fire hundre år. Danish was the written language in Norway for more than four hundred years. Det finnes er ingen vokaler i det arabiske alfabetet. There are no vowels in the Arabic alphabet. Vennene mine ville prate om filmens budskap. My friends wanted to chat about the movie’s message.

Me and the boys escaping quarantine to go buy Animal Crossing on friday
This corona virus situation is making everyone including the governments show what they truly care about
OKAY SO
Upon my return to tumblr after 4 years, (last time I was on I was 16 years old and now I am 20) I am gonna do a small recap on what happened in the past 4 years.
I graduated high school
I got into a film school (which i really liked but now I am thinking of changing my profession)
I finally got to be an exchange student in America in Washington State!!! I was so happy!!
I got to travel the world more often (which I am so grateful and happy about) and
last but not the least and my most favourite thing that has happened in my life in the last 4 years was meeting the love of my life @smallboycyber aka my boyfriend. We met on facebook on a meme page and even though we are in a LDR we are working towards closing the distance which will most likely happen in a year and half. I am learning his language and I am very committed to learning the language. He also visited me in America and visits me every month. However, this thing with the shitty ass corona virus stopped us from visiting each other every month however as soon as it goes away, I will be in front of his door in no time. I can’t wait to see him. I feel so appreciated, so loved, so cared for. I can’t believe I met someone whom is as committed as I am.
LIFE IS GOOD
I just need to make it through the lock down and one year of university so I can move out of my shitty ass country forever and live with my boyfriend.
Last thing I want to accomplish is:
- MOVING OUT.
thank you tumblr, I’ve missed you!
